- Comment on Discord Shuts Down ‘Spy Pet’ Bots That Scraped, Sold User Messages 6 months ago:
Yeah and discord is allowing it. Thats all i am saying.
Of course Restorecord is doing it on purpose. There are some valid reasons, but maybe Discord shouldt allow untrusted bot-developers like them to do so. - Comment on Discord Shuts Down ‘Spy Pet’ Bots That Scraped, Sold User Messages 6 months ago:
afaik thats rather about the parallel service someone had selling the data for a subscription and getting that data from restorecord's database.
In the video it is already suspected restorecord is in on it, and the update comment proves it. - Comment on Discord Shuts Down ‘Spy Pet’ Bots That Scraped, Sold User Messages 6 months ago:
Discord bots were able to get a users IP via the verification system afaik.

But they are leaving it open..

umm.. isnt the government or rather the judikative already deciding what extremist is?
How would specifically this be different?I can understand the problems thos causes for the platforms, but the government injecting decisions is something you focus on?
Not to forget the many other places they inject themselves.. one could say your daily lifes because.. careful now.. you live in the country with a government, whaaat? - Comment on PSA: Docker nukes your firewall rules, and replaces them with its own. 8 months ago:
Yeah, it needs those rules for e.g. port-forwarding into the containers.
But it doesnt really 'nuke' existing ones.I have simply placed my rules at higher priority than normal. Very simple in nftables and good to not have rules mixed between nftables and iptables in unexpected ways.
You should filter as early as possible anyways to reduce ressource usage on e.g. connection tracking. - Comment on What is your preferred method for backing up several TB of data? 8 months ago:
So i understood you just want some local storage system with some fault tolerance.
ZFS will do that. Nothing fancy, just volumes as either blockdevice or ZFS filesystem.If you want something more fancy, maybe even distributed, check out storage cluster systems with erasure coding, less storage wasted than with pure replication, though comes at reconstruction cost if something goes wrong.
MinIO comes to mind, tough i never used it.. my requirements seem to be so rare, these tools only get close :/
- Comment on "How to bypass and block infuriating cookie popups" 🙄🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ 9 months ago:
The site is not really allowed to bother you with the cookie popup either.
If you clicked whatever, the site has to make sure your choice is kept for a reasonable time.
Asking again can be seen as trying to force you to allow more cookies, just so the popup doesnt appear again.
That choice wouldnt be freely given and thus not valid as thats required by the regulation. - Comment on "How to bypass and block infuriating cookie popups" 🙄🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ 9 months ago:
You shouldnt be actually able to refuse necessary cookies as the site needs to function even if you click 'decline all' by law.
If a site does break, report it to the supervisory authority of your country.
If you are in the US.. hahahahah. - Comment on Apple Makes It Harder for Police to Access Your Push Notifications 11 months ago:
would end up being mostly useless if it were just a block of timestamped and encrypted data sitting on Apple’s or Google’s servers
If you are only interested in the data, sure.
But metadata is also very powerful, specially when aggregated - Comment on Google asks Congress to not ban teens from social media 1 year ago:
We have eID features withiut such big problems.
Simply because the data resides on the card itself and can only be read using a certified terminal.e.g. A website can get a certificate to establish a secure tunnel between them and your card through e.g. your phone.
Then the certificate only allows getting specific data e.g. if you are over 18 or not. - Comment on Google asks Congress to not ban teens from social media 1 year ago:
You dont have e-ID features? Wild..
Just last semester i learned how they are implemented and which protections they have in place to preserve privacy like specific identifiers
So a certain terminal can only get certain information e.g. over 18? yes/no
Our cigarett dispensers use this feature (those without a person to check) - Comment on Finding a Tech Job Is Still a Nightmare 1 year ago:
Send a request, got an i terview a week later, another obe a week later and a contract after 2 days.
Good pay, lots of training opportunities, no controlling managers and flexible work tines. - Comment on My new favourite password manager 1 year ago:
The interface is weird and unintuitive at times..
I have a dropdown menu at the button "New custom field" and can select "Hidden". - Comment on My new favourite password manager 1 year ago:
I like that KeePass has the option to set fields as protected
Vaultwarden can do that - Comment on My new favourite password manager 1 year ago:
Ideally keypass would allow handling such conflicts internally.
Thats the big disadvantage of a single-file approach.Could easily be avoided e.g. sync whole folder and now you can have multiple files, e.g. 1 write file per program used.
